Need assistance with the Asus B350 ROG Strix F Gaming?
I received the board with the title. I’m not sure how to increase my CPU or APU performance since I only have the stock 1.45V voltage and no option to change the OC voltage. My CPU is running at 1.45V, and there’s no way to lower it further. I used Rayzen Master but it doesn’t work well. I need to overclock from BIOS to get better performance on my ASUS ROG Strix B350 gaming laptop. Any guidance or guides would be really helpful.
1.45v is significantly high. Begin by boosting the memory speed to 3000-3200MHz with CL 12-14 (lower settings are preferable). You may need to raise the SOC voltage, but keep it below 1.15v. After reaching that point, try overclocking the cores by adjusting the multiplier at stock voltage until instability appears. Add a small amount of voltage and keep going until you hit one of these goals:
1. Your desired speed
2. 1.4v
3. Temperature limit.
These steps are for continuous overclocking that will increase performance, maintain stability, and avoid shortening the lifespan of your MB or CPU. If you're using an integrated GPU, focus on overclocking between memory and cores. Be sure to conduct extensive tests on RAM, graphics, and CPU. The process could take some time—maybe a few hours...

After reaching that point, try increasing the core multiplier using the stock voltage until you encounter one of these outcomes:
1. Your desired speed
2. 1.4v
3. Temperature threshold
These steps are part of continuous overclocking that can enhance performance while maintaining stability and avoiding damage to the system (either CPU or memory). If you're using an integrated GPU, adjust it between the memory and cores. It's important to conduct extensive testing for RAM, graphics, and CPU. The process could take several hours to a few days.
Sure, I'll provide the screenshots of bios and explain everything once I'm back. Don't run away from the post.

I managed to lower the CPU voltage to 1.3 and it’s unusual you still need to set it manually then turn it off to 0.12500 and back up to 1.3v... For the APU, I enabled Turbo Mode Extreme and it reached 1500 MHz from the stock 1240… It’s very stable. Regarding RAM, it isn’t on the QVL list, so it can only run at 2733 unless a BIOS update is applied. So far everything is working well. Thanks a lot 😀
make sure the GPU voltage stays below 1.2v
for QVL it doesn't matter much
just enter whatever settings are on the sticks directly in BIOS
you'll notice a significant increase in performance since the GPU won't be lacking data.
note that the GPU voltage should stay below 1.2v. For QVL it doesn't matter much, just manually enter whatever is on the sticks in BIOS. you'll notice a significant boost since the GPU won't be lacking data. It's currently at 1.1v on the GPU voltage. Regarding RAM, it's stable at 2733 with 1.35 volts for 24 hours. If you manually set it higher, the PC will restart automatically.
that's unusual. unless your specific set comes with hynix components (corsair offers both hynix and samsung memory chips).
still, with the newest BIOS you should be able to reach at least 2933-3000MHz.
